2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

[Hotdog]

I might actually agree here... the timeline wasn't great and I'm still on team DM is a pg more than a sg.

Go get more wing creation and help and a stretch 4... someone younger please.

I just thought we'd have a move up our sleeve.

Doesnt Jabari fit that description?

And yes, Chris Wallace is an idiot. He will never get a better offer for Conley than the offers he got at this deadline. I don't know why he thinks he's going to get a better offer around the draft. Who in the bluest of blue hells is going to pay his ridiculous asking price for a 32 year old PG making 30+ million a year when there will be so many younger, cheaper options available to teams in the draft, free agency and on the trade market when teams have more financial flexibility??? He's so dumb. I hope they end up giving him away for peanuts.

Yes... though someone will give him a pick as long as conley is healthy.

I really think they want to reverse tank so they give the Celtics a late lotto pick in a bad draft rather than a higher pick in a future draft. That obligation sucks if you are doing a rebuild.

And yeah, I don't Wang Rubio long term, but I'm excited to watch his last dance with Utah this year.

He's getting re-signed this summer. The Jazz won't have any better option to use that money on. And they can't just let him walk for nothing. Same goes for Favors. The team now is the team next year.

Doesnt Jabari fit that description?

The Jabari we've seen in the last month... yes... that guy disappears sometimes doe.

I would really want Jabari... on a cheaper 2 year or 3 year make good deal... or something like Exum got.

I don't think they are dumb for holding Conley out. Deals will be easier at the draft for them.

Debatable. The expirings they want won't be available during the draft (assuming that was something they wanted). There's a better potential to get draft picks as GMs get loosey-goosey with 'em. That said, I genuinely doubt they see a better overall deal.

Yep. I can't see any viable upgrades for either of them. There's also a chance we could even have Rubio walk - unlikely but possible.

Exum looked good bofore the ankle, but he had some seriously rough games this year as well.

To most people Exum looking good means something like 5-10 from the field for 13 points and 4 assists in 22 minutes.

Which I guess does look pretty good in comparison to our other point guards tbh.

Sounds like the Conley price was crazy. It also never seemed like Memphis was really going to move him. Note that Marc Gasol had stopped traveling with the team, cleared out his locker, etc., while Conley had continued playing games.

Hard to be disappointed because I'm not sure what other deal would have been made. We also traded for Korver a quarter through the season, so not as if we've sat pat.

Ricky has limits as a player and I hate him on the court sometimes, but there's no denying he's super wholesome and a happy guy to have around. I hope that we upgrade in the off-season and the separation is more amicable than a trade would have been now.

Uhh, what?

Although Conley said he would play anywhere, and that the rumor he didn't want to come here was BS.

Yup. He wouldn't have added the "I have no idea where that came from" if was his dad/agent who did leak it. He would have left it at "I'll play anywhere."

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

All I can say... Dante better be good when he gets back... the Exum Hive versus the Exum Haters could get even worse.

Memphis ain't spending in a couple of years so I don't think expirings are that important. They just traded for Jonas.
